Pork, Apple, and Ginger Stir-Fry with Hoisin Sauce

SUBMITTED BY: Jenny G.

"This simple stir-fry has a sweet taste that appeals to teenagers. While broccoli is specified here, it's easy to add whatever vegetables you have available to it. Serve this over rice for a filling meal."

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 6 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1/2 cup applesauce
  • 1 pound pork loin, sliced and cut into thin strips
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons peanut oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger root
  • 3 cups broccoli florets

DIRECTIONS

  1. Whisk together the hoisin sauce, brown sugar, soy sauce, and applesauce in a small bowl; set aside.
  2. Combine the pork and cornstarch in a bowl. Mix until the cornstarch evenly coats the pork; set aside.
  3. Heat the peanut oil and sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Cook the pork in three separate batches in the hot oil until no longer pink in the middle, 2 to 3 minutes per batch. Remove pork to a plate lined with paper towels to drain, reserving the oil. Add the ginger to the skillet; cook and stir for 30 seconds. Stir in the broccoli and cook until tender. Return the pork to the skillet and pour in the sauce; toss to coat. Cook until all ingredients are hot.

Great recipe for the the whole family. I added a chopped onion, half a green bell pepper, sliced, 1 can each of bamboo shoots and water chestnuts, drained. I doubled the ingrediants for the sauce to compensate for the extra veggies. My husband and kids raved throughout dinner. They were all shocked to find out that it had applesauce in the recipe. Will fix again.

This is a great recipe! I used pork tenderloin instead of just loin and it was so tender. My hubby was disappointed when it was all gone - he'd been taking it for lunch. Next time I'll make more and see how it freezes. BTW, I did cut back on the sugar and used Splenda, it worked very well.

Pretty tasty, but VERY sweet. Next time I'll make it without the applesauce and/or cut back on the sugars.
